A double-line metro tunnel was constructed beneath an existing high-speed railway bridge
in a city of east China. To avoid the unexpected displacement of the bridge resulting from the …

Periodic wave barriers have been widely used to mitigate ambient vibration. However,
almost all the studies on the performance of periodic wave barriers are conducted under the …

This paper explores using wave barriers for mitigating vibrations generated by underground
railway transit. An optimal design procedure is developed by coupling finite element (FE) …

This paper aims to design optimal inclined wave barriers for screening vibrations in
homogeneous and layered grounds with different groundwater table levels. The wave …

Underground train–induced vibrations can cause nearby residents discomfort, damage to
buildings, and disturbance for equipment. One of the most effective ways to reduce …

This paper uses the Bloch-Floquet theory based on the modified non-dominated sorting
genetic algorithm-II (NSGA-II) to investigate the optimal design of wave barriers to attenuate …

Train-induced ground vibrations cause numerous problems for adjacent buildings,
residents, and vibration-sensitive equipment due to the expansion of rail transportation. One …

Concrete slab tracks help shield the supporting railway earth structure from external water
ingress. However, the inevitable cracks that arise during its lifespan provide a pathway for …

This paper studies the topology optimization for jet-grout distribution as a structural material
beneath a foundation under static and dynamic loadings. The material distribution is …

This paper considers the problem of inhibiting smearing effects for multiple sensor fault
isolation. Although the reconstruction-based approach has received considerable attention …
